maybe a perk to reduce (or even remove) the fall damage?

Can you add a small UI section showing the active perks while playing? Or am I missing it and it's already there? I can't really take my eyes off the action to see what perk I got at that point usually. Or perhaps another 3 sec bullet time so you can see it and change strategies accordingly?

Hi, the collected perks appear on the left upper corner below the active MOD.

List might be added to pause menu later, but we could also try putting the item giveaway bit earlier. Thanks for the feedback!

Hey treemengames, just one little suggestion for you guys. You should place your soundtracks on spotify, it would be really nice to have a drive downtown and listen to songs of my favourite driving game! Really enjoyable music, keep it up guys!

Hi 73VEN! We look into the Spotify thing soon!

Whenever you obtain a perk, it should flash across the screen so you know what you have.


It's obvious to me when I get the Bomb Squad, but Drone or Chopper Defense? I have yet to see any benefit from these perks. If a notice flashed across my screen at least I'd know I had them and it wasn't an error with the game.

So - I just switched to normal mode and realized that Hard theoretically had no perks. This was never explained anywhere - so my first hour and a half into the game, I was playing hard mode. It makes me sad because the game is probably more fun with the perks.


However, even on hard mode, I noticed certain perks (or so it seemed) - routinely when dropping off or picking up guys, cops would explode. Isn't that one of the perks in the perk deck?
